The Pelican VG Pocket is a handheld dedicated console, built by Jungletac and sold by Performance Designed Products LLC under their Pelican Accessories brand. It was the first console of its type to have a 2" backlit color LCD screen.
The VG Pocket has built-in games, the number of which varies with each model. Many of the games are clones of old Nintendo Entertainment System and arcade games. This gaming device also has a TV-out port with composite video and audio streaming through a non-standard stereo mini headset jack.
In 2008, the VG Pocket Caplet and the VG Pocket Tablet were finalists in the International Design Excellence Awards. They were designed by Stuart Karten Design, a Los Angeles based industrial design firm.
Famous quotes containing the word pocket:
“They would have me as familiar with men’s pockets as their
gloves or their handkerchiefs; which makes much against my
manhood, if I should take from another’s pocket to put into
mine; for it is plain pocketing up of wrongs.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
